Vaccinations for puppies are one of the first responsibilities of the puppy owner for the health of the dog. Puppies are protected against many potentially deadly dog diseases by vaccinations for puppies.

Puppies receive the first antibodies from their mothers through the placenta. After they are born, they were continue to receive antibodies in the mother's milk for the first two days.

Puppies typically get their first vaccines when their natural immunity from the mother's antibodies wears off. Prior to this time, vaccinations for puppies will not provide protection against disease. Many veterinarians recommend that the puppy be vaccinated between six and nine weeks of age.

The veterinarian will typically recommend vaccinations for distemper, parvovirus, leptospirosis, and hepatitis. Additional vaccinations for puppies such as those for rabies and kennel cough may be recommended by the veterinarian.

Parvovirus causes bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain, depression, refusal to eat or drink, then vomiting. Parvovirus is potentially fatal. Canine distemper causes vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, lethargy, coughing, runny nose, and may cause seizures.

A virus that attacks the liver and can be deadly is infectious canine hepatitis. Infectious canine hepatitis causes vomiting, diarrhea, fever, lethargy, and a loss of appetite.

Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that causes abdominal pain, vomiting, lethargy, bloody diarrhea, increased thirst, and fever. A dog can die from leptospirosis within hours of the onset of symptoms.

Kennel cough is a highly contagious upper respiratory infection that causes a dry cough, slight fever, loss of appetite, and lethargy. Many kennels require that dog owners and their dogs vaccinated for kennel cough before they will board the dogs.

The final stages of rabies causes the dog to foam at the mouth and drool. Rabies can lead to paralysis, coma, and death from respiratory failure. Rabies can also affect people unlike most dog diseases.

Other diseases for which a dog can be vaccinated include coronavirus, bordetella, parainfluenza, and measles. Some of these vaccinations are only recommended if the dog is to spend significant time in kennels or with a large number of other dogs.

Following some vaccinations, the puppy may not be allowed to be exposed to other dogs. The veterinarian may provide information on possible side effects and any other precautions related to the vaccinations.
